Abstract

To provide a motor control device capable of properly compensating the fluctuation in inverter output voltage during a dead time. The motor control device is for an inverter including switching elements composing upper and lower arms to convert a direct-current voltage to an alternating-current voltage and apply the alternating-current voltage to a motor thereby controlling a current of the motor to be a current target value, the motor control device including a dead time compensation unit that compensates fluctuation in inverter output voltage during a dead time with each switching between the upper and lower arms by a dead time compensation voltage, wherein the dead time compensation unit acquires an input parameter that determines a polarity of motor current during the dead time in a half-cycle of a fundamental wave of the motor current, and varies the dead time compensation voltage according to magnitude of the input parameter.
